So my MacBook is from 2020 and is an intel. So it is very slow. This has always annoyed me but since my school gives out Chromebooks I would typically use that for my school work since it is faster. But I’m doing college prep right now and have to use my Mac since I need to use my personal google account. I was wondering if it is worth it to get a new MacBook now or wait until next summer. I’m not sure if any new Mac’s are coming out between now and then.

As for what MacBook you should buy, it depends on your workflow and budget. For most students, an M4 MacBook Air is plenty and is the best bang for your buck.

Yeah, go ahead and buy a MacBook now then! I can assure you the Intel will not be sufficient enough for college.

As a person who uses an Apple Silicon MacBook I can assure you that anything in Apple's current MacBook lineup is absolutely worth it.

The one thing that sucks is my phone is also getting old so I need one before college ( my parents words not mine it makes me sound spoiled 😭 ) So it’s going to be pricy so we got to space it out. And I have a twin sister with the same gen devices as me
